Roseate Spoonbill [121]

I came across a couple of other photographers patiently waiting for this great bird. He was standing still with his head tucked under his wing. The other photographers said that every 15 minutes or so, he would move about a bit, to scratch at a bug bite, or stretch his legs. We were like bird paparazzi, waiting for him to do something interesting. When he moved, the high speed shutters on the three cameras went off like a press conference.

Inspiration – because sometimes it’s hard to take another picture.

“You can’t wait for inspiration. You have to go after it with a club.” - Jack London

"If you don't feel that you are possibly on the edge of humiliating yourself, of losing control of the whole thing, then probably what you are doing isn't very vital. If you don't feel like you are writing somewhat over your head, why do it? If you don't have some doubt of your authority to tell this story, then you are not trying to tell enough." ~ John Irving
